Default Restoring, rebuilding a 69 camaro roller??

Hello,

Just got a 69 roller about a month age. It needs alot of things. Not much there. Needs a full floor, upper and lower fire wall, inner n outer rockers, trunk extenders outter wheel wells, 1/4s, and tail panel. The front end sheet metal is not even there (hood etc). Trunk floors and rear frame rails are good.
Where do I start.
Any help will help.
Any quality parts will help also.
I need tags and paper work also. Located in long Island NY.

Thanks in advanced
Tommy C

I hope you know what you got into. With that much work on the shell I would say its would be cheaper to buy a dynacore body but with out the paper work and the title there is no way to get it on the road. Fact is the dynacore bodys are making finding tags and titles pretty tuff. I saw a well optioned vin tag/cowl tag/title sell for 7500 last winter

Use the search function there is a lot of info on this site, Then you can ask more direct question.

Yikes.. I am with gorn, you might have gotten much more than you payed for. The cost of all the metal you might need would be about the same as a new shell. Ebay would have some of the tag stuff you would need. Got any pics?

One term that comes to mind is..."jack up the gas cap and pull another car under it".
That thing sounds like a goner!
